The April field trip to the Bluebells at the Stone Bridge is being Rescheduled! 

Mary Jane and Martin Fish went to the Manassas Battlefield last weekend to check on the progress of the bluebells.  Most buds were very tiny, with a few plants that were almost fully developed.  They think that this weekend (April 12th and 13th) may be closer to the peak than the weekend of the 19th. We are moving the field trip to Sunday, April 13th due to the greater chance of showers on Saturday the 12th and the SIO being held on that day as well.  

Mary Jane and Martin will be at the Vienna Metro North parking lot at 6:00 am and will caravan with anyone else there to the bluebells, arriving at about 6:30 am.  Terry Goplerud and Michele Dandrea Lowell will meet us at the Battlefield.  

If there is anyone who cannot attend on the 13th and who would still like to go on the 19th, Martin will head up a second visit on the scheduled day, Saturday, April 19.  He will be at the Vienna Metro parking lot at 6:00 am.  

In order better to plan the outings, please drop Martin and/or Terry an email or phone call letting them know which date(s) you plan to attend.  If you don’t plan to go on either day, you do not have to send anything.  

Martin’s email address is fishmp@aol.com and his cell phone is 703-969-8907.
